English

Why is that you fill in a form by filling it out, an alarm goes off by going on, a building burns down as it burns up, you cut a tree up after you cut it down, and when the stars are out you can see them better when the lights are out?

Re: English

Yeah...I guess that's just how English is. Sometimes I think that someone just came up with all these phrases, wrote it in a book somewhere and then someone found it, and declared it proper English...just kidding, lol.

But anyway...why would you want to take a dump? Sounds horrible when people say it now that you think of it.
